On the night of November 28, 1998, Robert E. Hunter, a White man from Tulsa, was at a residence at 1121 East 8th Street with two other men. During that evening the two men attacked him; he was left critically injured and died the next day, November 29, his death recorded as resulting from an assault. The basic facts recorded by investigators are stark: three men together, two becoming assailants, and the victim succumbing within twenty-four hours.

However, Tulsa police and Oklahoma cold-case listings have continued to describe the killing as an attack by two unidentified males and do not present a clear final resolution in those brief public entries. Little else is publicly detailed about the motive or what happened before or after the assault.

Did anyone in Tulsa at the time see Robert with those two men or have details that could clarify what happened at the East 8th Street residence?
